FormLoad to FormLoaded: Enhancing Form Functionality with formLoaded in Power Apps
The traditional approach of using "formLoad" for form handling in Power Apps has drawbacks such as inconsistent loading data and insufficient feedback. The newly introduced "formLoaded" event in Microsoft's documentation addresses these issues by ensuring that the form is completely loaded before users can start using it. This event allows for extra API calls and follow-up actions that depend on fields set up during the initial form load. By using methods like "addLoaded" and "removeLoaded," developers can attach or detach functions based on specific needs. This approach improves user experience, handles data dependencies effectively, and reduces wait times. Overall, adopting the "formLoaded" event enhances form handling processes and delivers a superior user experience.
